Italian Christmas Classics with Giuseppe Dell'Anno

10:00am to 4:00pm - Saturday, 23rd Nov 2024 - Cheltenham

Italian Christmas Classics

We will explore some of the most traditional Italian cakes, perfectly designed for the most luxurious Christmas table. We will bake a collection of quintessentially Neapolitan biscuits, perfect for sharing during the festive period, and ideal to be given away to friends and family as a thoughtful gift. We will also indulge in a couple of lesser-known, super easy but incredibly decadent sweet treats that would sit well on the most aristocratic dinner table. This will be my way to wish you all the most peaceful Buon Natale!

This class is suitable for beginner with little or no experience of baking as well as more experienced bakers looking for some Italian inspiration.

Allergies

This class uses gluten, dairy products, eggs, nuts, seeds, sulphites, gelatine, celery, and other known allergens. We take caution to prevent cross-contamination, but equipment and tools will be shared during the class, therefore we are unable to guarantee that the food is allergen free. If you are concerned and would like to discuss this further, please contact us before you book.

Special Dietary Requirements

We will try to accommodate all dietary requirements for lunch; where this proves impossible or problematic, we will inform you in advance of the class date.

The chef

An engineer and researcher by trade, Giuseppe grew up in a family of passionate bakers, where food was the prime topic of conversation. He inherited from his dad, a professional chef, the love for everything cooked or baked. Winning the Great British Bake Off in 2021 sparked off his ambition to share his family gastronomic knowledge far and wide.

After contributing to the show’s cookbook “A Bake For All Seasons” in 2021, he published his own, “Giuseppe’s Italian Bakes” in 2022, which featured in Waterstones’ The Best Books of 2022: Food & Drink, and was listed in Diana Henry’s Autumn 2022 Best Cookbooks in The Telegraph.

Foodworks Cookery School is an imaginatively created cookery school located in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire.
